Tourist attractions to clean up with €3m fund announced by Minister Hogan

A €3m spruce-up to boost tourist attractions has been unveiled by Environment Minister Phil Hogan.

The Public Area Enhancement scheme will see counties Dublin and Cork get €105,000 each, with Cork City receiving a further €90,000 to aid improvements to parks and campaigns to clean up the streets.

Mr Hogan said he hoped the money would improve tourist business for areas hit by storms.
